I am having my thesis as of now, our topic is about mobile language translation. Unlike other applications, we won't be incorporating any data dictionary in our proposed application, rather, we would be using third party language service providers such as AT&T and Google which will aide us in data fetching in the translation process and we will use internet connection in fetching the necessary data from these servers. Our mobile application will be installed and it will not be a wap site. With this, the problem with connecting to the internet is coming into view. So my question is, how would I be able to initiate an internet connection with a static application like ours? Let's say, we have the TRANSLATE button, once clicked it will initiate the connection to the internet and will connect to the servers and eventually translate the text I want to translate, say from English to French then send it back to the mobile. I have searched for some codes but based from what I have found, all the codes are written in java and I will be using C# mobile application. Please help.
